King Dauid hath great victories, making manie nations tributarie, 15. his chiefe officeres are recounted.
1And it came to pass after this, that David defeated the Philistines, and humbled them, and took away Geth, and her daughters out of the hands of the Philistines,Dopo tali cose Davidde mise in rotta i Filistei, e gli umiliò, e ritolse Geth, e i suoi villaggi dalle mani de' Filistei;AND it came to passe after these thinges, that Dauid stroke the Philisthijms, and humbled them, and tooke away Geth, and her daughters out of the hand of the Philisthijms,Factum est autem post hæc, ut percuteret David Philisthiim, et humiliaret eos, et tolleret Geth et filias ejus de manu Philisthiim, 2And he defeated Moab, and the Moabites were made David’s servants, and brought him gifts.E sconfisse Moab, e i Moabiti divennero servi di David, e gli offerivano doni.and stroke Moob, and the Moabites were made Dauids seruantes, offering him giftes.percuteretque Moab, et fierent Moabitæ servi David, offerentes ei munera. 3At that time David defeated also Adarezer king of Soba of the land of Hemath, when he went to extend his dominions as far as the river Euphrates.In quello stesso tempo David vinse Adarezer re di Saba nel paese di Hemath, allorché si mosse per dilatare il suo dominio sino al fiume Eufrate.At that time Dauid stroke Adazezer also the king of Soba of the countrie of Hemath, when he went on to dilate his empire as farre as the riuer Euphrates.Eo tempore percussit David etiam Adarezer regem Soba regionis Hemath, quando perrexit ut dilataret imperium suum usque ad flumen Euphraten. 4And David took from him a thousand chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen, and he houghed all the chariot horses, only a hundred chariots, which he reserved for himself.E David prese a lui mille cocchi a quattro cavalli, e sette mila soldati a cavallo, e venti mila pedoni, e tagliò i garetti a tutti i cavalli de' cocchi, eccettuati i cavalli di cento cocchi, i quali egli serbò per se.Dauid therfore tooke a thousand chariotes of his, & seuen thousand horsmen, & twentie thousand footemen, & he hoghsinewed al the chariot horses, sauing an hundred chariotes, which he reserued to himself.Cepit ergo David mille quadrigas ejus, et septem millia equitum, ac viginti millia virorum peditum, subnervavitque omnes equos curruum, exceptis centum quadrigis, quas reservavit sibi. 5And the Syrians of Damascus came also to help Adarezer king of Soba: and David slew of them likewise two and twenty thousand men.Ed essendo sopraggiunti i Soriani di Damasco, per recar soccorso ad Adarezer re di Soba, uccise loro Davidde ventidue mila uomini.And the Syrian also of Damascus came moreouer, to giue ayde to Adarezer the king of Soba but Dauid stroke also of his two & twentie thousand men.Supervenit autem et Syrus Damascenus, ut auxilium præberet Adarezer regi Soba: sed et hujus percussit David viginti duo millia virorum.
6And he put a garrison in Damascus, that Syria also should serve him, and bring gifts. And the Lord assisted him in all things to which he went.E mise presidio in Damasco, onde anche la Siria fosse soggetta a lui, e gli offerisse tributi. E il Signore gli diede aiuto in tutto le sue imprese.And he put souldiars in Damascus, that Syria also should serue him, & bring giftes. And our Lord holpe him in al thinges, to the which he went.Et posuit milites in Damasco, ut Syria quoque serviret sibi, et offerret munera. Adjuvitque eum Dominus in cunctis ad quæ perrexerat. 7And David took the golden quivers which the servants of Adarezer had, and he brought them to Jerusalem.E David prese ancora i turcassi d'oro, che erano stati dei servi di Adarezer, e li portò a Gerusalemme.Dauid also tooke the golden quyuers, which the seruantes of Adarezer had, and he brought them into Ierusalem.Tulit quoque David pharetras aureas, quas habuerant servi Adarezer, et attulit eas in Jerusalem. 8Likewise out of Thebath and Chun, cities of Adarezer, he brought very much brass, of which Solomon made the brazen sea, and the pillars, and the vessels of brass.E similmente gran quantità di bronzo da Thebath, e da Chun, città di Adarezer, del qual bronzo Salomone fece il mare di bronzo, e le colonne, e i vasi di bronzo.Moreouer of The bath, and Chun the cities of Adarezer verie much brasse, of which Salomon made the brasen Sea, and pillers, and brasen vessels.Necnon de Thebath et Chun urbibus Adarezer æris plurimum, de quo fecit Salomon mare æneum, et columnas, et vasa ænea. 9Now when Thou king of Hemath heard that David had defeated all the army of Adarezer king of Soba,Avendo adunque udito Thou re di Hemath, come David avea disfatto tutto l'esercito di Adarezer re di Soba,Which when Tou the king of Hemath had heard, to witte, that Dauid had striken al the armie of Adarezer the king of Soba,Quod cum audisset Thou rex Hemath, percussisse videlicet David omnem exercitum Adarezer regis Soba, 10He sent Adoram his son to king David to desire peace of him, and to congratulate him that he had defeated and overthrown Adarezer: for Thou was an enemy to Adarezer.Mandò Adoram suo figliuolo al re David, per chiedergli pace, e per congratularsi con lui dell'avere abbattuto, e soggiogato Adarezer: perocché Thou avea nimicizia con Adarezer.he sent Adoram his soune to king Dauid, to desire peace of him, & to congratulate him that he had striken, and had ouerthrowen Adarezer: for Tou was aduersarie to Adarezer. But al the vessel also of gold,misit Adoram filium suum ad regem David, ut postularet ab eo pacem, et congratularetur ei quod percussisset et expugnasset Adarezer: adversarius quippe erat Thou Adarezer.
11And all the vessels of gold, and silver and brass king David consecrated to the Lord, with the silver and gold which he had taken from all the nations, as well from Edom, and from Moab, and from the sons of Ammon, as from the Philistines, and from Amalec.Consagrò eziandio il re David al Signore tutti i vasi d'oro, e d'argento, e di bronzo, e l'argento, e l'oro, che egli avea preso a tutte le genti, tanto dell'Idumea, e di Moab, e degli Ammoniti, come de' Filistei, e degli Amaleciti.and siluer, and brasse king Dauid consecrated to our Lord, with the siluer and gold, which he had taken out of al the nations, as wel of Idumea, and Moab, & the children of Ammon, as of the Philisthijms and Amalec.Sed et omnia vasa aurea, et argentea, et ænea consecravit David rex Domino, cum argento et auro quod tulerat ex universis gentibus, tam de Idumæa, et Moab, et filiis Ammon, quam de Philisthiim et Amalec. 12And Abisai the son of Sarvia slew of the Edomites in the vale of the saltpits, eighteen thousand:Abisai poi figliuolo di Sarvia sconfisse diciotto mila Idumei nella valle delle Saline.And Abisai the sonne of Saruia stroke Edom in the Vale of salt pittes, eightene thousand:Abisai vero filius Sarviæ percussit Edom in valle Salinarum, decem et octo millia: 13And he put a garrison in Edom, that Edom should serve David: and the Lord preserved David in all things to which he went.E pose presidio nell'Idumea, affinchè l'Idumea fosse soggetta a David: e il Signore salvò Davidde in tutte le sue imprese.and he appoynted a garryson in Edom, that Idumea should serue Dauid: and our Lord saued Dauid in al thinges, to which he went.et constituit in Edom præsidium, ut serviret Idumæa David: salvavitque Dominus David in cunctis ad quæ perrexerat. 14So David reigned over all Israel, and executed judgment and justice among all his people.Davidde adunque regnò sopra tutto Israele, e rendeva ragione, e amministrava giustizia a tutto il suo popolo.Dauid therfore reigned ouer al Israel, & did iudgement and iustice to al his people.Regnavit ergo David super universum Israël, et faciebat judicium atque justitiam cuncto populo suo. 15And Joab the son of Sarvia was over the army, and Josaphat the son of Ahilud recorder.E Gioab figliuolo di Sarvia era capo dell'esercito, e Josaphat figliuolo di Ahilud era segretario.Moreouer Ioab the sonne of Saruia was ouer the armie, and Iosaphat the sonne of Ahilud commenter.Porro Joab filius Sarviæ erat super exercitum, et Josaphat filius Ahilud a commentariis: 16And Sadoc the son of Achitob, and Achimelech the son of Abiathar, were the priests: and Susa, scribe.Sadoc figliuolo di Achitob, e Achimelec figliuolo di Abiathar, erano Sacerdoti: e Susa notaio.And Sadoc the sonne of Achitob, & Ahimelech the sonne of Abiathar, Priestes: and Susa, Scribe.Sadoc autem filius Achitob, et Ahimelech filius Abiathar, sacerdotes: et Susa, scriba:
17And Banaias the son of Joiada was over the bands of the Cerethi, and the Phelethi: and the sons of David were chief about the king.Parimente Banaia figliuolo di Joiada aveva il comando delle legioni di Cerethi, e di Phelethi: e i figliuoli di David erano i primi al fianco del re.Banaias also the sonne of Ioiada ouer the legions Cerethi, and Phelethi: moreouer the sonnes of Dauid the chief at the kinges hand.Banaias quoque filius Jojadæ super legiones Cerethi et Phelethi: porro filii David, primi ad manum regis.

Daughters. Villages (See 2 Kings 8:1.; Menochius) and dependant towns. (Worthington)
18:2
18:3
Adarezer, or Adadezer, 2 Kings.
When he, the king of Soba, went to extend. Hebrew, "to strengthened his hand on the," etc.
Hand often denotes power, extent, possession.
18:4
Calmet
Footmen. Hebrew may well signify, "1000 chariot-horses and 7000 men who mounted the chariots and the horses." We only find 1700 horsemen, 2 Kings 8:4. But soon after it is added, David houghed all the chariot-horses. (Calmet)
Du Hamel
They were thus rendered useless. The king was forbidden to keep many horses. (Du Hamel)
18:5
18:6
Calmet
A garrison. Literally, "soldiers." This word has been lost by the neglect of some Hebrew transcriber. (Calmet)
Haydock
Protestants supply it. (Haydock)
18:7
Quivers. Hebrew, "the shields," etc. The term is variously translated, 2 Kings.
18:8
Chun, called probably Betath, and Berothai, 2 Kings.
18:10
Adoram, or Joram, 2 Kings.
Desire. Hebrew, "to ask if all went well with him, and to bless him.
18:11
Calmet
Edom, or rather Syria, (Aram) which might easily be exchanged for Edom, 2 Kings viii. David could not satisfy his devotion by building a temple; but he made preparations. Solomon left part of the treasures unconsumed, 1 Paralipomenon 26:26. (Calmet)
Worthington
These effects, being destined for sacred uses, are said to be consecrated to the Lord. (Worthington)
18:12
Calmet
Edomites. David seems to have been present, and the victory is sometimes attributed to him. Joab afterwards slew 18,000, 3 Kings 11:15., and title of Psalm ix. (St. Jerome, Trad.) (Calmet)
Tirinus
Pits. This place was fatal to that nation: there Amasias destroyed 20,000, 2 Paralipomenon 25:12. (Tirinus)
18:16
Abiathar and Achimelech had both names indifferently. Hebrew reads Abimelech, which is a manifest mistake. The name of Abiathar perhaps ought to be in the place of Achimelech; as we know that he was the son of the latter, and the high priest under David. Some would translate, "and Abiathar, son of Achimelech."
Susa, or Saraias, secretary.
18:17
About. Literally, "at the hand of the king," to execute his orders, and to assist him. Septuagint, "vicegerents." Syriac, "princes." They are styled priests, 2 Kings 8:18.

12. In valle Salinarum, ubi erant salinæ in quibus conficiebatur sal. Audi Adrichomium in descript. tribus Judæ, num. 211: «Vallis Salinarum seu salis, hebraice Gemela, alias Mela dicta; in qua David percussit octodecim millia Idumæorum, et rediens erexit sibi fornicem triumphalem. Ibidem et Joab duodecim millia delevit; et Amasias decem vel viginti Idumæorum millia, atque alia decem millia præcipitavit de rupe et petra Jecteel.» Vide II Reg. VIII; Psal. LVIII, LIX; I Paral. XVIII; 2 Paral. XXV; IV Reg. XIV; Hieronymus in Genes. XIV in loca Hebræa; in II Reg. VIII, et I Paral. XVIII. Fuit ergo hæc vallis Idumæis exitialis et, ut ita dicam, fatalis.
18:16
16. Ahimelech filius Abiathar — hebraice est Abimelech; Septuaginta, Achimelech. Affines enim et vicinæ sunt Hebraicæ litteræ ח et ב. Porro Ahimelech hic est genitivi casus: nam Abiathar filius Ahimelech erat sacerdos, id est Pontifex Davidis una cum Sadoc; nisi malis hunc Ahimelech fuisse filium Abiatharis, qui pro parente sene vel aliis occupato, subinde cum Sadoc pontificatu functus sit, uti fecere filii Heli et Samuelis, 1 Reg. II, 12, et cap. VIII, 1. Idque ita factum esse satis colligitur ex capite XXIV, 6.
18:1
… In una (II Sam. 8, 1-14; I Par. 18, 1-13), A. fu battuto verso Harnat, vicino al Hermon, e David orrò il santuario con gli «scudi d'oro» presi ai suoi ufficiali; furono poi sconfitti gli Aramei di Damasco venuti in suo aiuto. …

Il Regno di Giuda la rivendicava a sé (I Sam. 7, 14; I Par. 8, 13; II Par. 11, 8; 26, 6). David la conquistò (II Sam. 8, 1; I Par. 18, 1) ed ebbe un corpo scelto di seicento guerrieri gethiti (II Sam. 15, 18). Hazael, re di Siria, occupò G. (II Reg. 12, 18), per i Filistei; Ozia ne abbatté le mura (II Par. 16, …
18:12
… contro 300 nemici, fu incluso nella seconda triade degli eroi di David e meritò il comando di parte dell'esercito davidico contro gli Ammoniti (ibid. 10, 9-14), contro Absalom (ibid. 18, 2 sg.), contro Seba (ibid. 20, 6 sg.) e contro gli Idumei (I Par. 18, 12). Per le personali inimicizie di Joab con Abner, aiutò il fratello nell'eliminazione del generale nemico, già riconciliatosi con David (II Sam. 3, 30). Faustino Salvoni
18:18
… Appare talora un influsso demonico etico (I Reg. 22, 19-23; I Par. 18, 18-22: lo spirito di menzogna inganna i profeti del re Achab) o anche fisico (come nel caso di Giobbe); ma questo influsso è piuttosto esterno. …
